The Somalia Conflict Early Response Unit is pleased to announce the launch of their conflict assessment of Gedo, Middle Juba, Lower Juba, and Lower Shabelle: From the Bottom up: Southern Regions – Perspectives through conflict analysis and key political actor’s mapping of Gedo, Middle Juba, Lower Juba, and Lower Shabelle.
The purpose of this conflict assessment was to improve understanding of the conflicts in southern Somalia, and to contribute to stabilization and better reconstruction, local governance and development assistance. The report identifies key conflict hot spots and issues and the views of key political actors. As regions in southern Somalia emerge from al Shabaab control old grievances and tensions may re-emerge. The report examines historical, current and potential future conflict. The report therefore provides vital information for any person or institution wishing to promote peace in these regions.
The meeting will also hear a short presentation on options for political accommodation within Somalia presented by Conflict Dynamics international.

Synopsis
What really happens around our senator when his wife is not around? We all know Michael, the senator, a person of high integrity and an ambassador of morality and humanity.
But there is this journalist who believes we are getting the whole picture wrong, and is out to do whatever it takes to pin down the senator on immorality grounds.
Activities revolve on this night that the senator is sure his wife is not around. But his wife’s trip is cut short, and the journalist claims to possess compelling information.
To settle our integrity assumption, come and witness what the senator has to go through to make his wife and the media understand the presence of some representatives, a scantily dressed call girl and his “incompetent” secretary at his house.
